    Another excellent British crime movie even if an obvious plot
  • November 23, 2008
    This small-budget heist movie, though hardly very original, is at least made with complete professionalism.

    Belter of a heist movie, well paced, quality writing and a great twist...made all the better by the fact that its a true story....

    I am nt hating on the accent, but this was the most stupidiest bank robbery movie tht I've watched. I felt very sorry for th writer, whose work was gud, the plot wasnt bad bt the actors and the directors butchered the movie. The absolutely no suspense, the actors accents made it ...( read more)terrible, the twist didn leave much of a climax, as in everything that shud be in an action movie wasnt there. Dont even lemme get started on the so- called 'police', they give law reinforcement a bad name! in short, terrible.

    it feels like watching a blend of bank robbers movies but it has it's own things but still it feels that way even if it was based on actual or true events.but the storyline and dialogue was very well written and yes we have to admit that but still the movie just bleeds like the g...( read more)uy!!

    Follows a group of English football fans who use the World Cup as a cover for a big bank robbery.

    With an ensemble of British actors, and a script that will leave any self respecting movie buff wanting more, debut feature film Director/Screenwriter (Paris Leonti) delivers a thrilling new take on the Heist genre.

    Alex (Geoff Bell, The Business) masterminds an ambitious plan to steal millions of untraceable cash that is stacked in the underground vaults of The London Exchange Bank, waiting for its last journey, Incineration.

    Lucky (Vas Blackwood, Lock Stock) Matty (Leo Gregory, Stoned) Terry (Johnny Harris, London to Brighton) Chubby (Paul Nicholls, The Trench) Norman (Justin Salinger, Hitler) and Jay (Robert Boulter, The Long Firm) make up his unlikely gang of robbers.

    Setting up their alibi, the gang check in for a flight and join in with thousands of England supporters that are part of a mass exodus to The World Cup Tournament in Germany.

    Instead of passing through to Departure Lounge, the gang head out to the car park, pile into a van and head for Central London where they spectacularly ram raid London Exchange Bank, blocking any exit for those caught up inside.

    But with an unexpected turn of events, their plan is hampered from the start and they are left with a whole lot more than just a bank robbery to deal with.

    They have twenty hostages inside and the Police have laid siege to The Bank. There are two and a half hours before their plane leaves, and seventy million pounds in hard cash to steal.

    A daunting task, even for the most seasoned Blagger!

    Was really looking forward to this one.
    Disappointed. Bad script, TV style movie. Paying money to see it is Daylight Robbery!
